Chloë Sevigny-disappointment in House & Gardens

I really like Chloë Sevigny and her take on style so I must say I was disappointed by how very non-individual her home - as featured in House & Garden - is. I think the guest room is great though (flowers, flowers, flowers! as above) even if it's probably too busy to actually get some sleep in...

I'm not disappointed; I think it has all of the eccentric details and interesting pieces that one would except her house to have. I have that issue of H&G and it's very inspirational. She also listed her favorite things on two pages.

I'm glad you enjoyed it even if I didn't - most mentions of the spread has been positive I think so... I guess like with most things people's opinions are just different.

To me a lot of it just looked hotel-roomy (a feeling that didn't go away despite personal details) something I personally find very very tedious - then I guess my expectations on her are so high I'm harsher in evaluating the space...
